Product Summary

A sanitary check valve is a machine or mechanism which normally allows fluid to flow through it in only one direction in pipeline systems where a very high level of cleanliness is mandatory, such as employed in the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
A sanitary check valve is adapted for mounting between any flanges and specifically between sanitary flanges in a piping system. It is often designed for safety reasons, to create leak tight seals, to prevent backflow and to ensure that someone operating a system knows which direction fluids and gases are flowing in. The body of sanitary check valves may be made of metal or thermoplastic, such as PVC, steel, or copper.
